Friends, As you likely know by now, devastating fires have ravaged southeastern New Mexico this week. Thousands are displaced, unsure if they will have homes to return to when this is over.

In the meantime, I am working with our delegation and the Governor to drive resources to fight these fires, as well as secure federal support for recovery.
